OUR MISSION

At POP UP YOGA DSM, we believe yoga should be accessible and enjoyable, so that everyone in our community can reap the benefits of a personal practice. We also believe in the power of community; we know strong connections build powerful, supportive friendships, and exploring one’s community leads to sustainable, urban growth. That’s why we offer free yoga classes to the Des Moines community in a variety of unique spaces — parks, farmer’s markets, rooftops, galleries, music festivals, warehouses and businesses.

Our classes welcome all levels of students, whether you’re brand new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner. These classes are 100% free to attend, but some specialty "pop-ups" may be donation-based to help support our cause or a local charity. We aim to provide more opportunities for you to prioritize your health and wellness, as well as introduce you to different styles of yoga — and maybe help you make a new friend or two. Above all, we hope that participating in POP UP YOGA DSM encourages you to begin or cultivate a personal yoga practice at a studio right here in Des Moines.
